@srobinet Hi

Very sorry about your granddaughter’s broken collarbone. That seems like it was challenging and stressful for her. I had recently slipped on ice following a major snowstorm and fractured my knee. I know how difficult coping with a fracture is for your granddaughter and your family. Your own surgery seems stressful, as well.

Very glad to hear that your daughter will be assisting you.

What do you think of Visiting Nurse or the hospital providing a home / medical as a back up and added support to you following the surgery and your daughter is working and may be tired from work and her own home responsibilities ? ••• Health Insurance should cover the Home Aide if your hospital and MD order the home aid for your post surgery care and assistance.

Added option-
The Visiting Nurse or a hospital arranged medical- Home Aide would be able to assist you and check on surgery drainage, mobility, general health , food shopping and preparation, helping you with bathroom or sponge baths etc while you are recuperating and while your ••daughter is at work , dealing with her home responsibilities or your daughter is resting or sleeping. following your surgery .

It seems like your family is wonderful and will be very supportive of you.

Best for yourrecovery!
